Spring in bloom

It was past 11pm. I was in a very long but promising queue at a checkout in a supermarket (which opens all day all year round). I had a long Sunday and grocery shopping had to be pushed to the end of the day.

What drew my attention while waiting in line (other than the less-sodium chili sauce) were the lanterns decorating the store for the coming Chinese New Year. These aren’t the best shots really. They look much sweeter in person.
